Hi!
I can confirm this problem with 4.00.39-1.
A downgrade 4.00.35-2 solved this issue.
I now pinned the 4.00.35-2 release:
create a cat "/etc/apt/preferences.d/samsung-pin" file with the following content:
(i know that i need not pin all packages, but i thought: "better more than less" ;) )
2. use apt-get to (re-)install the packages, either via
3. if you're unable to install some of the "-fix" packages, try downloading them via wget and install them manuall:
4. if things don't work, try rebooting the system to reset all drivers/usb ports/...
for your reference, my current configuration:
Note: sane-find-scanner does not provide any output, but "scanimage -L" does and "scanimage > scan.pnm" works too.
(I currently am only using the command line for scanning via our intranet server)
